Great location and super easy access to town. Felt safe; we could hear the music from town when on the porch at night but it was so quiet inside. The steps to the door were a little tricky but I’ve got old knees. Our host was super responsive to all questions. Easy entry; nice and clean. Plenty of towels. Cute place.

The space was perfect for our one night stay! We felt super cozy. We did find a few spiders in the cabin, but that is to be expected. Thank you so much for everything!

Actually met the owner by accident. She was super awesome. I booked not knowing I was going to end up bringing a truck and trailer. She was super understanding abd helped me with some suggestions. The cottage was excellent. Perfect for any weekend getaway!

We throughly enjoyed our stay at this cozy little cottage! The location is perfect, literally right up the hill from downtown Bryson. The front porch is a nice sitting place, for coffee or wine, that boasts beautiful views of the mountains. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to complete our stay! Will definitely be back to stay here again!

This is the sweetest little mountain cottage. Our hostess was great with communication. The cottage was super clean and felt cozy and inviting. It was decorated for Christmas and very well maintained. Can’t wait to book another stay at Bennett’s Cottage!
Sweetest front porch with great seating and beautiful views.

My wife and I spent two nights in this cottage. At first entrance the cottage appears to be super clean, but after looking it is not super clean. The floors definitely could use a better cleaning and when you put the couch down, it is white in the cracks (couch is blue). If you are a larger person or a person with limited mobility, I would not recommend this property. The steps are not easy to climb up if you have any issues walking. The shower is very small as well. Although, it is close to town, it is not walkable to town for most people. Going down to town would definitely be easier than coming back up the mountain. For the price, the cottage did exactly what we needed it to do. Also, if you drive a vehicle that is low, you will probably not be able to get up the driveway. We spun tires in my Bronco, so I could only imagine if we were in the car. The host is very responsive. I did see where others have stated that the owner lives next door, I do not think this is accurate anymore. The house next door did not have any vehicles there the entire time we were there.
